Ace Combat 3: Electrosphere

Ace Combat 3: Electrosphere is a 1999 combat flight simulation game by Namco for the PlayStation. The third game in the Ace Combat franchise, it was released in Japan on May 27, 1999, and internationally the following year. Players fly fighter aircraft and must complete a variety of mission objectives, such as destroying squadrons of enemy planes or protecting a base from an invading unit. Namco directors Takuya Iwasaki and Atsushi Shiozawa designed Electrosphere to be visually distinct from other combat flight simulators, using Ace Combat 2 as a base for the game's ideas and mechanics.
